In October I had a honeybee that kept getting in the house I told my wife it must be looking for food so we put apples in a plate along with sugar water mixed in that evening I bet they were 2 or 3 thousand honeybees they were everywhere on our back deck

I wish I would have watched this video. I made rookie mistake and popped the cork out to release, and did not spray water. Hopefully the hive will take. Geeesh.

Followed your instructions to a tee and I got stun like 50 times in the head and face. Lesson learned I guess… tip for new bee keepers were appropriate gear even if this guy doesn’t.

I do take the cork out and put a marshmallow in the hole... but you say don't do that? but you did not say what's wrong with that procedure? works for me.

I have now since 2018, around 150 fruittrees growing on my property and will start beekeeping this year! Only question, I never find the answer to: How do you get a queen bee? Do you put honey in the beehive and they just come to it and "make" a queen? Buying a queen is not an option, since I live on a remote island in the subtropics... Possibly a stupid question, but really don't find an answer anywhere!
@amandaciesielski97319 ай бұрын
This is exactly how you would do it. Try to attract a swarm. I the spring the bees will swarm looking for a new home. You'll see them randomly grouped on a branch or sometimes on a park bench. You can try to put your box next to them with lemon grass or honey or something inside to hopefully attract them there. Good luck

So we lost our bees over the winter and I am about to install my package bees we'd evening. I have cleaned out almost all the bees but there are still a few in some of the cells throught the hive. Plenty of honey in hive for new bees. My question is do I need to worry about those dead bees or will the bees clean out the dead ones
@josephsastre464 Жыл бұрын
This is an excellent video. He doesn’t explain why the Queen cage should be candy side up but one good reason is that it makes it possible for you to know that the queen escaped alive. If you put it in there candy side down and she died she might just fall out and you won’t know it.

If you somehow missed and didn't see a queen in a colony, but mistakenly thought it was queenless, what is the estimated chances that they'd try to ball/kill a new queen cage going in? Can watching for balling on a new queen cage be reliable in determining if you already have a queen, if you have bad eyes?

What about feeders?? The queen won't start producing babies until she has pollen! A pollen patty helps the population from crashing too hard (maybe this is a northern climate thing?)
